It's Hard to be a Ranger Fan

This from Newberg

wow...it's freaking Borbon!!

Once again, he had 6 walks last year.

He got a major league deal...that the Rangers refused to give Porcello. Yes there's a big difference between a high school pitcher and a college hitter...but there's a bigger difference between a top 3 talent and a guy who was over drafted in the supplemental round.

The Rangers show a willingness to go above slot, and give major league deals...so why don't we have Porcello? Oh yeah! because the Rangers' biggest problem has always been a complete inability to identify/acquire/keep talent.

I said before the draft that Texas shouldn't draft him, and now am saying it's a horrible signing.

JJ and I were really hoping that the Rangers would get saved from themselves and not sign Borbon...Is Boras that good at his job or are the people working for the Rangers that stupid?
